A few days ago, Missouri Governor Matt Blunt issued a warning to the state that, contrary to recent claims, vote fraud was happening in Missouri.
Gov. Blunt reminded everyone that he’d became Sec. of State right after the 2000 election and investigated the massive fraud that happened in that election and he sees it all happening again, especially in St. Louis.
Contrary to assertions that voter fraud has not occurred in Missouri, my report found that well over 1,000 improper ballots were cast in St. Louis City and St. Louis County. Further my report found that there was in St. Louis an organized and successful effort to generate improper votes in large numbers.
And guess what organization Blunt found was responsible for vote fraud in 2006?
In the aftermath of the 2006 election, 12 workers for ACORN were convicted of voter fraud in St. Louis and Kansas City. Now the FBI is investigating attempts by ACORN to commit voter registration fraud in Missouri and other states in this election. This is deeply troubling to me because these efforts to game the system with fraudulent registrations undermine public confidence in our election process. At least one Missouri official has attempted to downplay ACORN’s attempts to commit fraud as insignificant. I strongly disagree. The only reason for someone to commit voter registration fraud is to attempt to commit voter fraud.
Gov. Blunt is fully aware that ACORN is up to its old tricks again for 2008. I hope that his agencies are prepared for it. Who can doubt that ACORN has every intention of infecting the process with as many illegal votes as it can get away with?
We all have to agree with the Gov. that we all want “an election result we can trust.”
Be sure and Visit my Home blog Publius’ Forum. It’s what’s happening NOW!
Ask yourself other than mailing in an absentee ballot how could a person show an ID for a person called “Nobody Real”, “Mickey Mouse”, etc? No self respecting poll worker would allow someone to flash an ID matching that name to the registration list. So if something is that blatantly fraudulent then how could a vote be cast? A corrupt election’s official having the list of fraudulent names casts the ballot for them…
How does St. Louis magically seem to have enough votes to almost cancel out the rest of the state on any given election when literally 80% vote Democrat in this one area? 80% is quite an anomaly when you look at the rest the state’s results. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election_in_Missouri,_2004
Check out Philadelphia, same thing 80% thus magically tips the state to Democrat even though the rest of the state without this city would have gone GOP. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election_in_Pennsylvania,_2004
Chicago’s Cook County magically has 70% voting Democrat that puts the Illinios in the Blue column, look at the rest of the state’s general percentages. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election_in_Illinois,_2004
Look at Wayne County MI, same thing, magically one area with a massive imbalance in vote percentages determined whether the state was blue or red. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election_in_Michigan,_2004
When you look at the Blue States, it’s not that people uniformly voted one way or the other, it was usually one county or city lopsided percentages that determined the final results. With the feds forcing (2002 Help America Vote Act) local elections offices to purge the voter rolls every two years, now you understand why Acorn and others are vitally important to the Democrats. This is why Obama’s campaign put over $800k in Acorn for the so called get out the vote drive. http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/terry-trippany/2008/10/17/abc-news-used-obama-contributor-expert-defense-acorn
Just to give everyone an idea of how vote fraud is perpetrated. All you need is one big county or city with enough fake votes you can shift the state’s electoral vote to your candidate. When you look at the 2004 election map, it becomes clear that George W Bush actually won in a landslide election of epic proportions were it not for the anomalous voting in one city or county in each of the so called Blue States.
Here are a few more so called Blue States that are actually RED were it not for such anomalies. Adding these to the previous 4, that makes 7 states with anomalous voting patterns. In every case in the city or county where this anomaly occurs, there is an well known entrenched Democrat Political Machine. If the Feds have done their job properly and the elections boards have complied with the 2002 law, then this will be a blow out election for John McCain. Btw- this is also why libs are making a fuss over various states using the Social Security # to verify the registration, all those fake SS#s of ineligible voters (illegals) will be rejected. The whole point of allowing illegals into the country and giving Sanctuary to them by Democrats was to get their vote. That is why they also opposed showing IDs to vote. Between the SS# and the ID, Democrats will be found to actually be in a significant minority in this country.

After seeing the breakdown of 6 so called Blue States, despite the spin of the libs, wouldn’t you be concerned of voter fraud? Where there is smoke there is usually fire. Six different states with the same anomalous type voting pattern suggests far more than a coincidence but a concerted effort by a corrupt political party to achieve by fraud what it can’t by legitimate means. Is there any difference with libs using the Courts to advance their agenda when the public refuses to go along? If they can’t win at the ballot box, either stuff it or over rule it. Democrats are not for self governance but control by an elite group who intends to force their belief system upon an unwilling public.
Great post Warner. Gov. Blunt has been out fighting ACORN for a few years now – and for good reason. These thugs are attempting to destroy the very democratic process we hold so dear (and take for granted, really), and I’m glad Blunt is standing up against these dangerous threats to a fair and free election.
